Does anybody know what other ships were around the USS Fitzgerald? A lot of talk on Yahoo that the destroyer was more manuverable so should have taken action - but -
If I am driving a sports car on I-5 in LA and an 18-wheeler crosses into my lane there is not much I can do. Did other ships around prevent wild manuvers?
